+# QuantEcon Weekly Report Action
+
+A GitHub Action that generates a weekly report summarizing activity across all repositories in the QuantEcon organization.
+
+## Features
+
+This action generates a report containing:
+- Number of issues opened by repository (last 7 days)
+- Number of issues closed by repository (last 7 days)  
+- Number of PRs merged by repository (last 7 days)
+- Summary totals across all repositories
+
+### Efficiency Features
+- **Smart repository filtering**: Uses GitHub Search API to identify repositories with recent activity (commits in the last 7 days) before checking for issues and PRs
+- **Fallback mechanism**: If no repositories are found with recent commits, falls back to checking all organization repositories to ensure complete coverage
+- **Activity-based reporting**: Only includes repositories with actual activity in the generated report
+
+## Usage
+
+```yaml
+- name: Generate weekly report
+  uses: QuantEcon/meta/.github/actions/weekly-report@main
+  with:
+    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+    organization: 'QuantEcon'
+    output-format: 'markdown'
+    exclude-repos: 'lecture-python.notebooks,auto-updated-repo'
+```
+
+## Inputs
+
+| Input | Description | Required | Default |
+|-------|-------------|----------|---------|
+| `github-token` | GitHub token with access to the organization | Yes | - |
+| `organization` | GitHub organization name | No | `QuantEcon` |
+| `output-format` | Output format (`markdown` or `json`) | No | `markdown` |
+| `exclude-repos` | Comma-separated list of repository names to exclude from the report | No | `''` |
+
+## Outputs
+
+| Output | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `report-content` | The full generated report content |
+| `report-summary` | A brief summary of the report metrics |
+
+## Permissions
+
+The GitHub token must have read access to:
+- Organization repositories
+- Repository issues
+- Repository pull requests
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+See the [weekly report workflow](../../workflows/weekly-report.yml) for a complete example that runs every Saturday and creates an issue with the report.
+
+## Report Format
+
+The generated markdown report includes:
+- A summary table showing activity by repository
+- Total counts across all repositories
+- Report metadata (generation date, period covered)
+
+Only repositories with activity in the reporting period are included in the detailed table.
